Write-up

  • To begin, we opened the attachment using Wireshark, a network protocol analyzer.
  • Through careful analysis of the captured logs, we identified a series of HTTP network packets.
  • To extract the HTTP contents, we utilized the File -> Export Objects -> HTTP menu in Wireshark and saved all the files.
  • In order to easily access and view the extracted files, we set up a basic web server.
  • By hosting the files on the web server, we were able to navigate to the corresponding web page.
  • Upon visiting the web page, we were greeted with a simple interface featuring a media player positioned in the center.
  • Initially, the media player appeared to be streaming content that displayed only a blank screen.
  • However, upon closer inspection, we noticed that at the 38-second mark, several frames briefly revealed the flag.
